Security and economic dimensions of the transatlantic partnership

Siminiuc, Mona. 06 1900 (has links)
The transatlantic relations have been on a bumpy ride in recent years with disagreements over issues ranging from the Iraq war to the Kyoto Treaty, the arms embargo on China, and the International Criminal Court. Polemics on "hard" versus "soft" security solutions and "power versus burden sharing" oppose the U.S. option for unilateral action to EU's multilateral cooperation approach. The parallel enlargement processes in NATO and the EU had a profound impact on one another, given that they both reach the heart of some fundamental questions, ranging from trade liberalization and globalization to the nature of security in 21st century Europe. In the new political-economic architecture of Europe, complementarily dimensions of security and economy objectives gave way to new tensions between the two shores of the Atlantic. These matters, however, are only a small part of an otherwise well functioning partnership. The optimal solution is to reach a compromise between the talk of preeminence and unilateralism by the U.S. and the greater willingness by the EU to step up and share the burden.

Transatlantic relations are alliances a funcion [i.e. function] of an external threat?

Jahnel, Carsten H. 06 1900 (has links)
Current European-U.S. transatlantic relations represent the heritage of a large number of international alliances and institutions that were founded at a time when there was a bipolar world, a world dominated by the United States and the Soviet Union. Today fourteen years after the end of the Cold War, some national leaders question the continued viability of these international alliances and institutions. In their references to international relations, realist and liberal theorists reflect significant ideological differences, which have considerable influence on transatlantic relations. This thesis considers a central question pertaining to the future of transatlantic relations between Europe and the United States: Will the presence, or absence, of an external threat to the countries involved be the deciding factor in their willingness to cooperate in security alliances? It is a significant question, and investigating it provides a better understanding of future uses of alliances and their role in world politics. Recently, two specific historical occurrences decisively modified the security landscape worldwide: the end of the Cold War 1991 and almost two decades of violent, deadly acts of international terrorism. Since the breakdown of the Warsaw Pact 1991 and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, which made former satellite states suddenly independent, numerous eastern European countries have applied for membership in NATO and the European Union. At the same time, organizations such as, especially, the EU and NATO, have had to deal with the competitive and often contradictory interests of member states. This thesis will focus with emphasis on France, Germany, and United States because the differences in their positions inside NATO are most significant.

Fame and Celebrity Within A Virtual World : A Case Study Of World Of Warcraft

Armelin, Lucy January 2012 (has links)
Despite the vast amount of research conducted by media academics over the past decade, little is known about the concept of internet celebrity, or e-celebrity, within an online-gaming environment. The overall impression that emerges from literature in this field is that e-celebrity has been studied in popular, user-based or social networking websites. However, this paper aims to contribute to the field by further exploring the role, concept and practices of e-celebrity within a virtual world: the Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game World of Warcraft. By exploring Marwick’s concept of micro-celebrity and by studying players via qualitative means using virtual ethnographic participant observation supported by interviews, the data collected in this paper aims to add nuance to our understanding of the changing concept of celebrity on a virtual level.

The view from the paradoxical world

Uribe, R. B. January 1983 (has links)
The consequences of using such complex tools as Logic and Mathematics, which are so ingrained in our own nature as thinking living organisms, to explain precisely that Nature in which we ourselves are imbedded, are disucssed from a new perspective. The interplay between the individual (subjective) world and the social (objective) world emerges with clarity under this light. Paradoxes, a nightmare for Logicians and Mathematicians, are returned to their cradle, the observer, where no hunt is set up to “solve" them. Though I am not alone in this endeavour to consider paradoxes from a different perspective, new insights into the nature of the living organization and the working of the nervous system allow today the opportunity to strengthen this revolutionary viewpoint. Several experiments performed on a multicomputer realization of organizationally closed (paradoxical) unities, suggest a nervous system where processes and descriptions are more fundamental concepts than time and space. While the consequences of this new approach remain still to be explored, a sensitive reader will already enjoy them.
